I just spent too much of my last two weeks hammering on a vendor for poor performance, being told repeatedly that the problem is, at its essence, that they have too many customers. Have long advocated that librarians grow some courage and bark at vendors who offer poor products. Alas, the sheeplike behaviour one sees at ALA and similar trade shows doesn't seem near its end. I happen to have one of those upper mgt jobs at the moment, and it has not suddenly turned me into an easy mark for a sales pitch. Watching all of the bandwagoning going on with Summon and Primo, however, makes me think there are still a lot of softies making the decisions. Right on.
